Turf Removal & Replacement

When It Is Time to Replace Your Turf

Artificial grass does not last forever. Even the best installations eventually wear out. Maybe your turf is 10 or 15 years old and starting to show its age. Maybe it was poorly installed to begin with and never worked right. Or maybe you just want to upgrade to newer, better-looking turf.

Whatever the reason, we handle complete turf removal and replacement projects throughout Kennewick. We tear out the old stuff, fix any problems with the base, and install fresh turf that looks and performs like new. Your yard gets a complete makeover without the hassle of doing it yourself.

Signs Your Turf Needs Replacement

How do you know when it is time to replace artificial grass? Here are the most common signs we see:

• Fading and discoloration from years of sun exposure
• Matted or flattened areas that do not bounce back
• Visible seams coming apart or separating
• Drainage problems causing standing water or odors
• Backing deterioration leading to loose or rippled turf
• Infill breakdown creating uneven or hard spots
• Overall worn-out appearance that makes your yard look old

If your turf has any of these issues, replacement is usually the best option. Trying to repair severely worn turf is like putting new paint on a rusty car. It might look better temporarily, but the underlying problems remain. Fresh turf gives you a clean start with modern materials that outperform what you had before.

Complete Removal and Disposal

Removing old artificial grass is not as simple as rolling it up and tossing it in a dumpster. The turf is heavy, and it is often secured with hundreds of nails or staples. The infill material needs to be collected. The base underneath may need repairs. This is hard, messy work that requires the right equipment.

We handle the entire removal process. Our crew carefully pulls up the old turf, removes all fasteners, and collects the infill. We haul everything away and dispose of it properly. Many turf components can be recycled, and we work with facilities that recycle artificial grass whenever possible.

Once the turf is gone, we inspect the base underneath. Sometimes the original base is still in good shape and just needs minor repairs. Other times, especially with poorly installed turf, we need to rebuild the base properly. We address drainage issues, fix settling or erosion problems, and create a solid foundation for your new turf.

Upgrading to Better Turf

Artificial grass technology has improved significantly in recent years. If your current turf is more than 10 years old, you will be amazed at how much better new turf looks and feels. Modern turf has more natural color variation, softer fibers, better backing materials, and improved drainage.

When we replace your turf, you get to choose from the latest products. Want pet turf with antimicrobial backing? We can do that. Want turf that stays cooler in summer? We have options for that too. Want a different blade style or color? You have choices.

This is also a great time to make other improvements. Add landscape edging to create cleaner borders. Install better drainage if water was an issue before. Change the shape or size of the turf area. Upgrade to thicker padding underneath. A replacement project gives you the chance to fix everything that was not perfect the first time.

Fixing Problems from Poor Installation

Not all turf installations are done correctly. We see plenty of jobs where the original installer cut corners. Common problems include inadequate base preparation, poor drainage, incorrect grading, loose seams, and improper fastening. These issues shorten turf life and create headaches for homeowners.

When we do a replacement, we fix these problems. We rebuild the base to proper specifications with correct grading and compaction. We install drainage systems that actually work. We secure the turf properly so seams stay tight and edges do not lift. Our installations are done right the first time.

The result is turf that lasts longer and performs better than what you had before. Good installation makes all the difference in how your artificial grass looks and functions over time.

Combining Turf with Other Landscaping

Many replacement projects expand beyond just new turf. This is the perfect opportunity to update your entire yard. We work with clients to create complete outdoor living spaces that combine artificial grass with other features.

Add decorative pavers and hardscaping to break up large turf areas. Install planter beds with native plants for color and visual interest. Create defined spaces for patios, walkways, and seating areas. The combination of turf and other materials creates a more interesting and functional yard.

We also coordinate with other contractors if your project involves irrigation, lighting, or structures. Our goal is to give you a finished outdoor space that looks and works exactly how you want it.
